Glad to see you finally get it! |

How could one possibly "upgrade" to sailing? notice big grin Ask any sailer if sailing is an upgrade over those stinky, noisy infernal combustion monsters that polute our waterways. :-) That really ought to be easy to do. As you know, we stinkpotters are compelled to steer clear of the ragboaters when they're under sail. That still doesn't present much of a problem in getting close enough to most sailboats to ask the suggested question. Unless they're in an organized race or just putzing aorund the bay for the afternoon, 9 out of 10 sailboats are most frequently powered by stinky, noise, infernal combustion motors while all sails remain fully secured. In fact, due to lack of maintenance a good many of those sailboats seem to produce a greater quantity of smoke (absolutely on on a per HP basis) than we stinkpotters do. However, I have heard many of your tribe observe, "Well, we *could* sail, if we wanted to." And they are, of course, entirely right. Things are different on this coast where sailing was the bread & butter of the area. With roads and rail pretty weak...the ocean acted as our highway. |

You're not displaying some repressed tendencies, are you? It's OK. Your karma is such that you'll have no problems with it. |
